Woke up this morning still feeling moderately ick, and decided that since a) I don't have anything that absolutely has to be done today and b) I do have things that I want to do the rest of the week, that the only logical thing to do was switch the alarm off (*), roll over, and go back to sleep. So I did. Four or five hours later I woke up again so I figured I made the right call (**). Particularly since the sore throat is gone, and the sinuses no longer feel completely filled with unpleasant ooze. The ears are still congested and I'm still having balance problems, but hopefully another good night's sleep will take that out.

Spent the rest of the day watching Isshun no Kaze ni Nare, which I'd been meaning to get around to since... uh, February? Man, I love these dramas. Formulaic as all out, but hey, I'll take it. The standard themes: following your dream, teamwork, if you work hard you achieve what you want. Always good things to hear. Easy on the eyes never hurts. I'm glad I watched it. It was nicely uplifting. I'd recommend watching it, but I don't think subs for it have been released yet, and I'm not volunteering.

And now I must figure out what I'm making for dinner tomorrow night. *digs out cookbooks*



(*) Yes, I'm still setting an alarm on weekdays. I need structure in my life, so I'm beginning to impose it, starting with waking up around 7. Behold, my sleeping in.


(**) I normally can't sleep past about 9 AM. About the only time I can sleep past 9 is when I'm not feeling well. Thus, sleeping until 11:30 tells me that sleeping more was needed.
